2026 ClearMark Awards at the IHA Health Literacy Conference
13 May 2026 Event: 4:15 – 5:45 pm EST
The Center for Plain Language is proud to partner with the Institute for Healthcare Advancement (IHA) to present the 2026 ClearMark Awards as part of the IHA Health Literacy Conference.
This year’s ClearMark program is more than an awards ceremony. In addition to recognizing outstanding examples of plain language across industries, the session will include audience participation and practical plain language tips that attendees can apply in their own work. Participants will see real-world examples of clear, effective communication and learn what makes them successful.
Join us as we celebrate excellence, share insights, and advance health literacy through clear communication.
